    He said the democrat blaming the virus on him is the hoax.

    That's some serious mental gymnastics. But ok. And Biden never called the travel ban xenophobic.

    It’s simply the truth.

    And yes he did.

    No doubt you believe that, but it is incorrect.

    "If only Trump did not say what he said, the media would not be able to quote him saying those things."

    I also think it is abundantly clear that Trump has never listened to the WHO.

    Setting aside that testing 100% results in confirmed case counts that you previously said are irrelevant...

    Is it your position that no one can talk about the rate or amount of infection until 100% of the population can be tested at the same time.

    Incorrect, Trump says something and the media twist what he says, frame it without context or with a context of their own.

    That is dishonest, manipulative, and certainly not at all as simple as “we are just repeating what he said”.

    Very, very little evidence that Biden or any Democrat ever criticized the limited travel restriction from China.

    Just curious though, how many people flew from China to the US after the imposition of that limited travel restriction?

    You keep saying that this could have been a lot worse as if you think believe that this **** is already over. 2400 Americans - a new single day record - died YESTERDAY.

    The evidence is there, you just dont like that evidence. Gotta defend your side no matter what lol.

    Doesn’t matter. Because the point still stands that helped slow the spread of the virus according to Dr.Fauci, giving us much needed extra time, and therefore saving lives.

    Look at the death toll estimates now, compared to in the beginning.

    Aw, so cute. Let's watch Trump saying those things that he should not have said.

    Yes, and it could have been MUCH worse.

    I know this frustrates you that Trump gets credit for saving all these America lives that would have been lost according to estimates, but it is true nonetheless.

    Politicizing their deaths does nothing for anyone. It’s very unbecoming.

    Did those mortality estimates change after Trump's partial travel restriction went into place?

    You are literally politicizing theoretical lives saved while ignoring the thousands dying every single day.

    Incorrect. I acknowledge that china really screwed the world over and killed so many.

    And I acknowledge that Trump has saved many lives with his action.

    Yes, that could have been SO MUCH worse.

    But yet it wasn’t because of Trumps great leadership.’

    Great Job President Trump!

    They have changed regularly, and has changed since the travel ban took place. Interesting question though.

    You proved my theory with your own words.

    Therefore folks should take your partisan written text with a grain of salt. You are the conservative version of Andrew Jackson.

    Please show me any indication that the models on mortality - all of which were released several weeks after Trump's travel restriction went into place - changed because of Trump's travel restriction.

    They clearly changed because of ALL the actions taken, ranging from the travel bans, social distancing, a partial “lockdown”, etc.
    And according to Dr.Fauci the travel ban slowed the rate of infection which bought us time, therefore saving lives.

    Excellent Job President Trump!

    If you have to say clearly, then your argument is probably not very clear.

    Show me any indication that the modeling changed because of trump's travel restriction.
